I cannot believe that it’s over; it feels like I am saying goodbye to my friends. While I read the series I became fond of so many characters I didn’t think of as much, in Vampire Academy. Jill, Sydney. The more that the series progressed, as I got to know about the characters more, I felt like each other of them became my friends. To me, it felt that I went on the journey along with them. I even teared up towards the end, since I knew that their story came to the end. Every book in Bloodlines took my breath away, craving me for more, wondering what to come next. It didn’t only have romance but friendship, adventure, action, mystery and courage. THE RUBY CIRCLE wasn’t any different for me, actually I felt that THE RUBY CIRCLE had the most action, there was so much going on in this book, and it was the hardest one to put down. It was one of those novels that I was both eager to find out how it ends, and at the same time sad because I knew it would be the end. RICHELLE MEAD didn’t disappoint. Of course I loved fact that Lissa, Rose and Dimitri was in this book, but then they been my favorites in VAMPIRE ACADEMY . I loved how they were trying to help Sydney and Adrian. Plus that ending… I found a huge smile on my face, I was wondering when it would come to that. I didn’t think I would see a day when Dmitri and Adrian would become friends, considering the history between the two of them. I always love when a spin off series has main characters part of it, and those three appeared on and off through the series. I loved it. Of course I loved the bond that Jill and Adrian have, and it was clear how hard her was trying to find and save her. Even though he didn’t say it, I could tell that it was very hard on him, maybe as hard as it was on Eddie. Adrian became the type of guy that you can’t help but love, the one that wants to help everyone. Adrian is a guy that every girl dreams about. Sydney and Adrian’s relationship seemed bit off balance in this one, at least in the start. At first it seemed like all they did was argue, but then there were so much going on at that time. But at first it did worry me, but in the end the two of them made it. All through the series, I was rooting for their happily after, but after Alchemist started hunting them down, I wasn’t so sure if it was possible. I was glad that they did. Just like the last book, the cover was beautiful in this one as well and fit well to the storyline. I honestly don’t want to say goodbye to this series, and I have a feeling it is a series I will end up re-reading multiple times as well. An astonishing finale to another amazing series. RICHELLE MEAD did it again, and I can’t wait to see what adventures she will come up with next.
